It's best for the sheep to have the wool taken
off, or they will be too hot in the summer time.
When the time comes for washing the sheep, they
are driven to a pond or a little river.
Then they are thrown into the water, one at a time.
The men who are in the water catch them, and wash them to get the dirt all out of
the wool.
When the wool is dry, the sheep are taken to the shearer; and he cuts off the
wool with a large pair of shears.
In a short time, before the cold winter comes, new wool grows out on the sheep.
By the coming of spring, there is so much that it must be cut off soon.

A person's nose is important for breathing and smelling. The nose is also used
in many popular expressions.
Some people are able to lead other people by the nose. For example, if a wife
leads her husband by the nose, she makes him do whatever she wants him to do.
Some people are said to be hard-nosed. They will not change their opinions
easily. And many people will never pay through the nose, that is, they will not
pay too much money for something.
It is always helpful when people keep their nose out of other people's
business.The opposite of this is someone who noses around all the time. This kind
of person is interested in other people's private matters. He is considered nosy.
And my teacher often says, "If you put your heart into it, the answers should
be right under your nose. " It means something can be found or seen easily.
As for ear, there are also some expressions.
When I want to say something to you, I hope you are all ears and listen carefully.
I also advise you to keep your ear to the ground. This means to be interested in
what is happening around you and what people are thinking.
Another expression about ear is to play it by ear. Someone is able to play
a song or a piece of music by remembering the tune(旋律) and not by reading the music.
There are many other expressions about different parts of our body.
For example, if someone is playing a joke on you, you can say, "You are pulling
my leg. " And to turn your hand to something means to begin to do something. If
a child does something wrong, we say he will get it in the neck, or he will be punished.
59. If a person always wants to lead others by the nose, that means
A.he always tells others what to do
B. he works harder than others
C. he cares about others instead of himself

A. We should be all ears.
B. We should keep our nose out of their business.
C. We should play it by ear.
D. We should pay through the nose.

Ted Brown's dream as a child was an unusual one: he wanted to fly. What was
more unusual was the way in which he made his dream come true.
After high school, he wanted to join the U. S. Air Force but he failed because
of his poor eyesight. However, his dream remained.
At the age of 33, Ted was a truck driver in Los Angeles. One day, while sitting
outside in his garden, he watched planes fly overhead and an idea came to him: to
use balloons(气球) to fly.
A few weeks later, Ted bought 42 huge balloons. He tied them to a chair and
then he sat down in the chair with some beer, sandwiches and a gun. His plan was
to fly to 10 meters above his garden, enjoy a few hours in the air, and then shoot
some balloons with his gun to get back down. But things did not go as he planned.
Once his friends cut the ropes under Ted's chair, the 42 balloons flew into
the sky at an astonishing speed until about 4000 meters above the ground with Ted
and his chair. He didn't shoot any of the balloons because he was afraid he might
break the balanee(平衡) of his "plane". Ted stayed in the sky with his beer and
sandwiches for 14 hours, cold and frightened.
Planes heading towards Los Angeles' busy international airport reported the
strange sight. And Ted' s balloons caused great danger to them. At last, Ted gathered
his courage to shoot a few balloons and slowly landed on the ground, where many
policemen were waiting for him.
Ted made his dream come true, but it cost him: he was fined(罚款) $ 1,500 for
breaking the law about air safety.
When asked by a reporter why he had done it, Ted answered, "A man can't just
sit around and do nothing; he should have his dream and go for it. "
63. Why couldn't Ted join the American Air Force?
A.Because he didn't finish high school.
B. Because his parents stopped him.
C. Because there was problem with his eyes.
D. Because he was too short.
64. He was fined $ 1,500 because
A.his balloons caused trouble to planes
B. he stayed too long in the air
C. he used too many balloons
D. he took a gun with him
65. Which of the following is true?
A. He didn't go to college because of his dream to fly.
B. He felt sorry for what he had done.
C. He realized his dream in a dangerous way both to himself and to others.
D. He didn't shoot the balloons at first because he wanted to stay there
longer.
66. What can be the best title for the story?
A. Go for It.
C. Up High in the Air.
B. A Man with Poor Eyesight.
D. Ted's Dream to Fly.

You know what it' s like. You ~ ve just arrived in Washington D. C. after a

notes. All we ask is a few days' notice.
All of our rooms are of the same high standard and we promise not to increase
prices in the next twelve months. But book now, because many people are already
calling to book rooms, and we'd hate to disappoint you.
Harmony--the hotel you've always wanted, but never been able to find before.
